Today sees our last newsletters for 2012, with the first of our new industry newsletters to be published on 15 January 2013, but we will keep on updating the new industry portals over the festive season.
We'd like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your continued support; our subscribers across all our portals continue to grow; in fact, in our new industries alone, we are now closing in on 70,000 subscribers, and for that we thank you.
We want to wish all of you a very enjoyable end-of-year break and - assuming the world doesn't end on Friday (You've heard about the predictions around the Mayan calendar, right?) - we wish you a highly successful 2013.
All the best from the Bizcommunity team!
